General Compliance Information

Electromagnetic Compatibility

Product Ratings and Approvals

1. The equipment label and epoxy coating may generate an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charges under certain extreme conditions. The user should ensure that the equipment is not installed in a location where it may be subjected to external conditions (such as high-pressure steam) which might cause a build-up of electrostatic charges on non-conducting surfaces. Additionally, cleaning of the equipment should be done only with a damp cloth.
2. Flameproof joints are not intended to be repaired.
3. All entry closure devices shall be suitably certified as “Ex d”, “Ex t” and “IP66/68” as applicable. Suitable thread sealing compound (non-setting, non-insulating, non-corrosive, not solvent based, suitable for the ambient rating) must be used at the NPT conduit entries to achieve the IPx8 rating while maintaining the Ex protection concept.

This information is contained within the serial number with the first four digits representing the year and month in the YYMM format.

The ProtEX-MAX must be installed in accordance with the ATEX directive 2014/34/EU, and the product certificate Sira 12ATEX1182X.
